It seems inevitable what is going to happen next, what I will say is that if Gio does turn it round it will be one of the great acts of escapology because there is no buy in here, the fans don’t have faith.
Without directly appealing to the Ibrox board to sack their manager David Edgar shared that bizarre mixture of delusion and anger that is burning inside almost all Ibrox fans following today’s 1-1 draw at home to Livingston.
A club that has won two trophies in 10 years looks like they won’t win the SPFL Premiership this season. The notion that they are serial winners is utterly deluded but like most aspects since 2012 reality has to be avoided at all cost.
The freak show of the 20/21 Lockdown season is coming back to haunt the Ibrox board, fans thought that the tide had turned but a strange combination of circumstances presented them with a trophy with reality quickly setting in afterwards.
Steven Gerrard saw the writing on the wall and bailed out at the first offer. A year ago Giovanni van Bronckhorst was out of work and it is easy to see why as he delivers one flat, uninspiring performance after another to the demanding Ibrox fans.
Being back behind Celtic after a nine year wait is causing extreme hurt for Ibrox fans, it is etched all over Edgar’s face as cruel reality sets in before a seven day spell of matches against Napoli, Aberdeen and Ajax.
The post above was on Follow Follow the day after the 4-0 defeat to Celtic.
